Homemade Biscoff fudge recipe | Cooking with my kids (1)

Biscoff fudge combines the caramel flavour of Biscoff with the smooth deliciousness of homemade condensed milk fudge. If you love Biscoff biscuits, you’ll love this fudge!

It’s so quick to make and with only four ingredients, really really easy.

You don’t need to worry about heating the ingredients to a certain temperature. Nope, you just melt everything together and leave it to set. It’s really as simple as that.

In fact, leaving it for a few hours to firm up is probably the hardest part of this recipe!

What is Biscoff?

Biscoff spread is the great caramel taste of Lotus Biscoff biscuits in the form of a spread. It’s literally crushed biscuits turned into a cookie butter (invented by an enterprising Belgian Mum).

You should be able to find it in your local supermarket, or purchase it online.

You can use Biscoff in all sorts of baking like our Biscoff millionaires shortbread, Biscoff blondies, Biscoff stuffed cookies, Biscoff cheesecake, Biscoff cupcakes or Biscoff brownies but this fudge is probably the easiest.

How long does Biscoff fudge last?

If you store your Biscoff fudge in an airtight container it will keep for a week or two. This makes it perfect for homemade gifts for friends and family.

How can kids help make Biscoff fudge?

This is a really simple recipe meaning kids can help with all of it.

Once your kids have broken up the white chocolate and measured out the remaining ingredients they can help melt it all together.

The melting is perhaps not a job for very young children, but if you have older children you trust around a cooker they should manage this.

Children of all ages can enjoy breaking up the biscuits and adding them on top.

Can you use a microwave?

Yes. I like melting everything together gently on a double boiler but if you prefer you can use a microwave.

Simply pop everything into a microwavable bowl and heat it in 30 second intervals. Stir it in between each microwave blast and stop when everything has melted and come together.

Ingredients

300g (1 1/4 cup) Biscoff spread
100g Biscoff biscuits (optional)

How to make Biscoff fudge

Get your kids to help line an 8 inch / 20cm square baking tin. We found the easiest way of doing this was to cut a strip of baking paper the width of the tray and lay it one way, then do the same with another sheet the other way.

Melt the fudge ingredients together

Get your kids to break the white chocolate up and put it in a heatproof bowl.

Add the condensed milk (just tip in the whole can).

Finally, weigh out the Biscoff spread and add it to your bowl.

Once everything has come together get your kids to help pour it into your prepared baking tin.

Smooth the fudge down with a spatula or the back of a spoon, making sure the fudge is pressed down into each corner.

Add the Biscoff biscuit topping

Get your kids to crush the biscuits into small chunks. They can either do this by hand or bash them in a bowl with the end of something solid like a rolling pin.

Don’t crush everything to a crumb, as it’s nice to have some bigger chunks as well.

Sprinkle the biscuit chunks onto the top of the fudge. Push the bigger chunks slightly down into the fudge otherwise they might not stick to the top when you cut it.

Leave the Biscoff fudge to set

Cover your fudge with cling film / glad wrap and leave it to set. Once it has cooled down, pop it in the fridge for a few hours to set completely.

Once it has firmed up, cut it into small pieces with a sharp knife (this is a job for the grown ups).

What is the secret to non grainy fudge? ›

Once a seed crystal forms, it grows bigger and bigger as the fudge cools. A lot of big crystals in fudge makes it grainy. By letting the fudge cool without stirring, you avoid creating seed crystals. Stirring would help sucrose molecules "find" one another and start forming crystals.

Why is my homemade fudge gooey? ›

If your fudge fails to harden in the fridge, it means that you probably didn't cook it to the right temperature. Fudge is a candy, and that means it is extremely picky about temperature - fudge must be cooked to precisely 237–239 degrees Fahrenheit so that sugar forms the desired consistency when cooled.

Why is my 3 ingredient fudge not setting? ›

The main reason is that your Fudge has not reached the optimum temperature. If your mixture only reaches 110 or 112 degrees Celsius it will always be soft. That's why we recommend investing in a sugar thermometer. Another reason your Fudge is not setting is that the ratio of liquid to sugar is too high.

Do you Stir fudge while boiling? ›

Brush the sides of the pan with a wet brush at the beginning of cooking to dissolve sugar crystals stuck to the sides. Never stir the mixture during cooking or sugar could crystallize again. The mixture may seize and become grainy. Use a candy thermometer or conduct a cold water test to check if the fudge is done.

Should I use salted or unsalted butter in fudge? ›

Use unsalted butter so you can add a small amount of salt (¼ teaspoon per stick of butter) to the sugar/liquid mixture. Salt tends to stabilize the mixture and keep it from foaming as much.

Why is my fudge dry and crumbly? ›

The dryness is usually a sign of heat damage on the chocolate. This does not necessarily mean that the chocolate has melted entirely, just that it was exposed to enough heat or heat variation that over time the cocoa fat crystals that make it solid has dissolved.

What's Biscoff taste like? ›

What does Biscoff taste like? It's a little hard to define, but I'd describe it as having a creamy, caramelized, ginger-snappish quality. The flavor profile is actually quite distinct, and because of that, Lotus has branched off into other areas, such as frozen treats, chocolates, and biscoff spread.
